If you are not a US citizen or Permanent Resident,

but you are classified as a Texas resident and therefore are eligible to pay the Texas
in-state tuition rate, use this 2015-2016 TASFA application. To use this application, your classification as a Texas resident must not be
due to a waiver, such as an in-state scholarship or an assistantship.

If you have been granted Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), we encourage
you to complete the FAFSA. Although DACA students are not eligible for federal student
aid, you still may be eligible for state or college aid, and submitting a FAFSA can
help you access those other types of aid. To begin your FAFSA, you must enter your
Social Security Number. While completing the FAFSA, you must answer the "Are you a
US citizen?" question as "No, I am not a citizen or eligible noncitizen." If you
filed taxes for 2014, you may also be able to transfer your tax information using
the IRS Data Retrieval Tool on the FAFSA.

Selected for Verification

The federal government selects FAFSAs to be verified by the financial aid department.
Our school may also select FAFSAs to be verified. During verification, a financial
aid counselor must confirm that certain data elements on the FAFSA are correct before
a student may receive any financial aid. In order to have payment arrangements made
by the tuition due date, please turn in all requested verification items by the deadlines
below:

Failure to submit documentation by the final verification deadline may result in loss
of financial aid eligibility. Our office is not required to complete verification
after the final deadline has passed. Students may appeal to the Director of Financial
Aid for an extension to the deadline.

Official tax return information from the IRS is required as part of the verification
process. When completing your FAFSA online, you have the option of using the IRS Data
Retrieval Tool. Please see page 3 of the verification worksheet for further instructions.
The IRS Data Retrieval Tool is the preferred method of submitting tax information
to the school because it is the quickest, easiest, and most secure way to submit your
tax information.
